Since I upgraded my tank to a 15 gallon with a 10 gallon topper I decided to get another crab!
I just adopted this crab from kijiji a week ago, at first him and my first crab (i’ve had almost 4 years) we’re fighting with chirping etc but I stayed up all night watching them (I dipped the new crab into the freshwater) and now they seem to be comfortable with eachother. I just was wondering what does the bright red colour of the new crab mean? (new crab is larger and in yellow shell) Is he going to molt soon? I just added more substrate so I have 7-8 inches at the higher part. Is that enough for his size? He is much larger than my current crab.
One other thing is I need more shells for these two as thy are large and I only have roughly 4-5 extra shells that will fit them each good. I also have been feeding dried shrimp, eggshells and scrambled eggs recently so they don’t convert to cannibalism lol
Also I need to add more to the topper such as a hammock and miss out, feel free to post pictures of your toppers as well as ideas for mine!
(ps: I need another heater to get that 76f to 80f, I am getting one within the next week, humidity always 80-90)
